Should Lennon get the sack? Vote!

According to Lennon in today's BN, he doesn't think the players are short on confidence.

And if he really believes that, I'm concerned.

Who gives à shit.What he says and thinks are two different things.

Sarah Lou comes back and finds out she is pregnant with Callums baby, Callum is buried under the extension floor after being killed by Sarahs sister in law. Can't wait till tomorrow.

I'm glad I don't watch constipation street anymore if that is what happens on it these days Barb.

I'm not saying anything

One or two players and a fully fit Clough, Clayton and Silva would be enough to get us out of trouble IMO.

Yes as it really isn't like him to not say anything.

Thats another way to get my post count up, tell you I'm not saying anything.

You are showing your age now.

There really is no point to sacking Lennon (and by implication most if not all of his backroom team) right now, irrespective of how the team performs.

Apart from the obvious additional cost of settling their contracts, who in their right minds could the club attract in their place right now AND if there is a takeover near, would the new owner want them / they want to work with the new owner.

Far cheaper to stick with him for better or worse because if we can't pay the wages now, then how will we afford to pay them for the next six contractual months too?

If we do go into Administration, we will get docked 12 points and be relegated anyway.

If a new owner takes us on before then, then I honestly doubt it will be for the good of the football side of the business and thus we wont be strengthening the team in the January window anyway.

Does anybody really think that some White Knight will ride to our rescue, buy a club leaking a £1 million per month, pay to replace Lennon and his staff, pay to bring in a new manager and their staff, and then pay some more millions to strengthen a team to simply stave off relegation this season?

I don't.

And I can't see a financial case to get rid of Lennon for the foreseeable future because of that.

Lennon will go when we hit Administration or when the club is sold (and the new owners want a change) and not before imo.

Or if Lennon gets a job elsewhere or he quits

Can't see Lennon quitting now - he's invested way too much in saying to the media how he's "up for the challenge" and is "going to see it through". He couldn't cope with being labelled a quitter as it goes against the image he has cultivated. Plus he can't lose if he stays because nobody (important) will blame him for our relegation.

I can't see him walking away from the job whilst we are bottom of the league and cast adrift.

For the same reason (bottom of the league and cast adrift) I can't see any other club tapping him up whilst he is contracted to the club.

Therefore I think he will see out his contract but before he gets to the end of it I believe we will either be put in Administration (and probably ultimately sacked by the Administrator as a money saving measure) or the club will be taken over and the new regime decides to keep him or not.

That's my view of things anyway.

I believe his contract is up at the of the season

Neil has league one players to work with ......nowt can be done until new players can be brought in.  Mourino can't do anything with hundreds of millions worth of talent.  Neil can't afford a pudding n Chips night.
